Distance

Isn't Google Maps brilliant!

I often play with it to see how far apart places are.  Sad, I know.  But tonight I thought I would measure the distance of one of my regular weekly runs (jogs, really).

I had guessed that I was running about 4 miles on this particular run and it turns out to be 2.0 miles.  In each direction.

It's almost like I willed it to be!

Wedding

Last weekend was my second niece's wedding.  Now, have I lost a niece or gained a nephew-in-law?

Ian is such a nice name and he also is such a nice man.  They seem devoted to each other and well suited.  I've added a picture below.

I think, therefore I blog!

Having got myself set up to be able to write blogs on my mobile phone (although for the use it gets, I should call it a pocket computer really) I am once again in the position of not really getting into blogging.

Of course, in a Twitter culture, we are used to expressing our thoughts in 160 characters (or fewer).  So this raises a interesting question: how long should a blog be?

I have read blogs by people who's instinct was to just keep on writing and not know when to stop.

So I have decided that I should write short blogs, each representing a thought.

I think, therefore I blog.

161 characters should be long enough!
